Chapter 1585 (1/2)

By this time, the scene had been completely chaotic. The third prince retreated to the city gate under the escort of several generals and pro guards. Along the way, he saw a large number of soldiers turned into fireballs running around, and these soldiers turned into new flames. They lit the place wherever they went. As a result, the fire became bigger and bigger.

As a transportation hub, Hongyu city is very prosperous. Although it is a medium-sized city, its population is close to that of a large city. In order to meet the housing problem of the soaring population in the city, the architectural layout in the city is very compact, almost houses next to houses. Once this layout is lit, the degree of terror can not be imagined by ordinary people.

All the way to avoid the fire, the third prince and all the others withdrew to the north gate that had entered before. However, at this time, the north gate had been completely sealed. The heavy gate could not be opened by manpower. However, the winch used to open the door was damaged. The personal guard of hundreds of people who followed the prince even wanted to lift the gate by manpower. Unfortunately, the result was certainly impossible, If the gate can be lifted by manpower, there is no need to exist!

The north gate couldn't be lifted up. The third prince had to take people along the city wall to run to other gates, wasting a lot of time. The third prince and others almost walked around the city, but all the four gates were in the same state. It was hard to go out.

Finally, they returned to the north gate, but they had no choice but to climb up the wall and use the rope to let the three princes and several generals down. In this way, the three princes and a group of generals escaped. As for the 500000 army in the city, they must not care!

The city gate could not be opened. The third prince was anxious to scratch his ears and cheeks. Did he just watch the 500000 people in the city burn alive? If you really go back like this, how will you tell the emperor about it?

In a hurry, the third prince ordered the troops outside the city to use door bumpers and catapults to bombard the north gate. It took more than a day to destroy the gate. However, although the gate was opened, less than 200000 soldiers ran out of it, and almost all the remaining 300000 people were buried in the sea of fire in Hongyu city!

The fire in the city was still burning, and it was impossible for the third prince to send troops in, so he had to wait patiently outside for the fire to burn out, and the fire burned for five days and five nights. Finally, when the third prince took people into the city again, the whole city had been turned into ruins, and there were charred soldier bodies everywhere in the ruins of the streets in the city, A pungent smell of burnt flesh suffocated people. The third prince asked his men to count the number of people. The final result was that more than 300000 people trapped in the city were killed, and the survival rate was zero. Although many soldiers escaped the fire, they were smoked alive by thick smoke. That kind of death is estimated to be more painful than burning!

The third prince first asked the army to surround the city Lord's house, but he was not in a hurry to attack. In the next two days, the third prince asked his men to clean up the ruins near the city Lord's house and create a huge empty field of almost 2000 square meters. Then the army arranged in the empty field and assumed the posture of attacking the city Lord's house!

However, in the past few days, long Tianci and the city Lord didn't show up, as if they were no longer in the city. The third prince sent someone to shout outside the city Lord's house, but no one responded for half a day. Realizing that the situation was wrong, the third prince couldn't wait any longer, so he ordered the army to rush into the city Lord's house.

After the army entered the city Lord's house, the third prince ordered the soldiers to conduct a detailed search of the city Lord's house. The final search result was that the city Lord's house was empty. Long Tianci, the city Lord and the dozen soldiers they left to help disappeared!

The third prince didn't believe that long Tianci would disappear for no reason, so he ordered to search the city master's residence again. This search really yielded some results. The soldiers found a secret road under a large water tank in the dining room on the first floor, and chased down the secret road. They found that the exit was in a random grave outside the city!
